Question about CTF mode..

Postby Scrumtralescent » Sat Jul 10, 2010 10:39 am

I've been playing for a while now, and I've noticed that CTF maps aren't really played on PC servers for some reason. Back when I played this game on the PS2 CTF maps were very popular and I enjoyed the hell out of them (Tantive IV and Death Star maps in particular), but it seems Conquest is the only mode, other than hero assault and the occasional space map, that's played. Is there any particular reason this is the case?

We can choose CTF maps and we have one in our roster- Tantive IV ctf. But yeah, there is a reason I think. When there are 36 ppl on a server CTF maps mean harmonized chaos so it's rather spawnkillin than following after flag. And those maps are really short. One team can win it in 6 minutes so it's really nothing interesting. Maybe on german servers where there are 8 ppl on each team it makes sense, with TK on. But not there.

I remember really enjoying a few games of Death Star CTF on SOTG's server when there were around 20 people online. However, one team can have a miserable time when the other's only objective appears to be spawn killing.

Still don't you think 1 CTF is a little little :) Maybe one or two more popular ones: mustafar, deathstar, naboo? Actually I don't know if those are popular I just see them most for ctf.
You could disallow SKing on ctf...?

1. Check out the non-pub servers. CTF is featured on the no bot servers.
2. I agree with one of the above posters, CTF is made for smaller teams given there's only one (or two) objectives instead of 6-8.

[04:29] (SWGO)SWINE*FLU: We'll do it in turns.
[04:30] -SR-Mandalore: That sounds super fair
[04:30] -SR-Mandalore: Do you think other gay couples do that?
[04:30] (SWGO)SWINE*FLU: I reckon so.
